“…Much work has been performed, and a significant problem may be the transformation of the results of studies (a non-exhaustive list is Bernardini and Lagomarsino, 2008;Binda et al, 2010Binda et al, , 2011Borzi et al, 2012;Braga et al, 2011;Chiauzzi et al, 2012;Lagomarsino and Resemini, 2009;Masi and Vona, 2012) into simple and optimised rules for practical planning (support to the decision maker) and design. Simple, fast, available and economic retrofitting strategies should be determined and integrated into mitigation policies for nonseismic buildings.…”

Cities are complex systems that result from the interaction between several factors: urban, socioeconomic and policy strategy overlap factors. These elements interact continuously with one another, which makes governance notably complex, particularly in the case of risk management. This paper focuses on the resilience of cities, with recent Italian earthquakes as case studies. The resilience of cities should undeniably play a fundamental role in seismic risk mitigation and government. The authors highlight that seismic vulnerability (e.g. buildings and lifelines, etc.) seems to be a fundamental topic in resilience. Nevertheless, to investigate the resilience of cities, the problem is strongly multidisciplinary and non-linear. However, to improve earthquake resilience in national, regional or single urban territories, the incorporation of engineering/science (physical), social/economic (behavioural) and institutional dimension (multilevel territorial government) resilience should be considered. Considering that the best strategies cannot be identified to support decision makers, the authors of this paper are working on possible applications of different multicriteria decision-making methods. Only after implementing a new multidisciplinary, multicriteria and multilevel framework to improve resilience will it be possible to define a quantitative evaluation of resilience. Seismic risk management may be considered an optimal conjunction between scientific research and decision making.

“…On the first, it is to be highlighted that different approaches are available to FCs definition, base on different analysis methods, different damage models, different forms, and different intensity parameters; advantages and disadvantage have been discussed in other studies of the authors in order to define the optimal way [13], [14].…”
